"1. Give notice that if ANY U.S. citizen is attacked in Iraq or in any combatant zone, then an adjacent neighborhood will be annihilated within two (2) hours if the perpetrators’ are not turned over to U.S. authorities."

The Baathists and the teerisits do not care about the Iraqi people - they have been mudering and torturing Iraqis for decades - and thus would not be discouraged by this plan. In fact, they would be delighted with this response, because they want a general state of war between the US and the Iraqi people - as against the present situation, where the US enjoys the support of the Iraqi people.

Somehow, I imagine President Bush is getting better advice than this.

It would not only delight the terrorists, it would aid them in recruiting to their numbers those innocents that had family and friends killed and/or property destroyed.

Dittos on this. This "idea" is a great way to lose a war.
